CHAPTER IX
Every year after the sting, the palace has to hold a sacrificial feast, put the cattle, sheep, poultry and other meat to the altar for three days and nights, during which the incense is continuous, and the palace maids need to keep it from time to time and take turns to continue the incense. And when the raw meat has been sacrificed to the gods, the children of the land are to be pure as a sign of sincerity.
Therefore, the feast is actually an activity of gathering people to eat fasting. Because of the fear that the prince's and minister's vegetarian food is boring, the imperial dining room has worked hard in the wine, and over time, the vegetarian food at the banquet has never deviated from its origin, but the wine is worth looking forward to every year.
Kuang Yu has been arranging rooms in the small study of Dongyuan these days, and no one can approach him except for Jianmi. Jiang Linglong took the opportunity to prepare for the banquet.
She went to the palace of the king of Cicao again. Although Fu Hui and King Cao are not from the same mother, Liang Yi'an is still very clear about his sister's methods and preferences. Before leaving, he also gave her a heart pill.
The two didn't say anything, but during the conversation, Jiang Linglong hinted that Furao should have plans to let her die in front of her husband, and Liang Yi'an also had something to say and told her the means that Furao likes to use.
Liang Shuyan will never give people time for diagnosis and treatment with poison, so she often uses instant grass, and it only takes a breath from taking poison to not being treated. And Liang Yi'an's only heart pill specializes in overcoming acute poison.
When the small study room was cleaned up, it was also the day of the feast.
Kuang Yu got up early in the morning, pushed open the door, and saw a person dressed as an immortal standing in the courtyard.
She combed her plain hair, only inserted a hairpin, a moon-white long robe, embroidered on the entire galaxy moon by month, gold and silver embroidery thread together, luxurious and elegant, the pair of dragon glass buckles on the collar buckle in the sun glowing, Jiang Linglong's face is small, thin eyebrows and bright eyes, soft eyelashes, delicate ears, pendant with the pair of white jade earrings he sent, lining the skin faintly exposed at the neck, clear and fair, as warm and flawless as jade.
"Good morning." She opened her lips lightly, greeted with a smile, and on the side of the orange moon, they stepped forward to wait for the owner to wash and change clothes.
"Madame picked this dark color material with the owner, you are really just right!" Orange Moon couldn't help but admire, "The sample cloth sent by the silk village, don't look at the exquisite embroidery, but Mrs. said that this piece of material is just right, although the embroidery is simple, but the fabric is of high quality, going to the palace banquet will not be rude to the saint, and it will not be too simple, but it will look elegant and special in the costume." ”
"Sister Orange Moon, you see the owner of the village wearing this jade spike, it really looks like a Nine Heavens Immortal!"
Kuang Yu listened to the waitresses chattering about this and that, and always felt that this scene seemed familiar.
Not really. At that time, he was carefully selected for her, but he didn't want to turn around today. She had already taken care of everything while he was busy.
Thinking like this, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
When he went out of the house again, he saw that she was still waiting at the door, and when he saw him, he nodded his head in satisfaction, and he estimated that he was secretly boasting about her own discerning eyes.
Jiang Linglong stepped forward and handed out a small brocade box, stretched it out in front of Kuang Yu, and motioned for him to open it, "Thank you for saving me many times." ”
Kuang Yu took it and opened it, and was surprised to see that it was a white jade wrench.
He always thought that Jiang Linglong was just an excuse to give gifts, but in fact, in order to be able to walk around Dongfu Street often, although she had explained that the gift was sincere, but he didn't take it to heart as a relief that made him feel good.
He picked up his wrench and took a closer look, and saw a white crane with wings carved on it, and looked at Jiang Linglong in surprise.
“…… You know? ”
She nodded kindly, "My father made me memorize the family crests of the princes and nobles when I was young," she explained simply, looking directly at him impartially, "The Kuang family still has you." That is, the head of the house is still there. Don't bend your back and abandon the glory of your ancestors. After she finished speaking, she saw that Kuang Yu was stunned and did not move, and reminded, "Put it on and take a look." ”
When Kuang Yu heard this, he smiled in his heart, but a warmth arose spontaneously. From looking at the stone selection and material selection to finalizing the correct type, carefully calculating the time, she has indeed been in Zhang Luo since she came back from the palace last time.
Today, he sent the carriages and horses of Yunshan Villa to the mark of the past, and the world only mentions the owner of the village and the first-class duke, and the name of the Kuang family, whether it is the market or the court, no one cares about it.
He put the wrench on his thumb. He knew that what he was wearing was not a thank you gift, but the support of the people around him, and the responsibility he would not fulfill.
"It's so pretty." She said happily, "Elegant and elegant." ”
He suddenly smiled lightly, "It's your unique vision." ”
At this point, the two of them dressed up and set off for the palace.
What they didn't see was that in the eyes of the people who sent the two out of the house, this color protected the moon white, like the color of heaven and water, complementing each other, blending and independent.
"The first-class duke and his wife are really talented and beautiful, and they are a good match!"
Above the Qing Palace, it was the current Prime Minister Zuo He who spoke. The side seats of King Liang are Princess Furui and King Cao, and the next seat is the prime minister's seat. Kuang Yu has no power, but he has the status of a prince and a prince, so he can be regarded as a nobleman, so he is in the front and sits opposite Zuo He.
Princess Furui is still beautifully dressed and jade today, but she talks less, and drinks more with her brother and ministers, she has long seen Jiang Linglong wearing the glass buckle she gave herself, and sneered in her heart, who will be the one who will repay her, and who will be the one who walks out of the Qing Hall with a smile today, I'm afraid, I'm afraid that you lowly woman won't be able to see it.
She was charming, and she toasted to King Liang sideways, her eyes were tactful, and she saw that her porcelain wine bottle had been presented to the banquet table by the palace maid, and she was sharing the wine.
King Liang stood beside the Duke of Yin's public horse report, "Your Majesty, the princess is offering bamboo wine from Qianzhang Kingdom this year, which came from the palace, and it has been matured for five years. ”
When Liang Yanran heard this, her face was happy, "Sister Wang has a heart, hurry up and try it with Zhongqing." ”
"This wine is sweet in the mouth, and the first-class duchess must taste it." Fu Rui smiled at King Liang and turned to the table between Kuang Yu and Jiang Linglong, before finally introducing Jiang Linglong with a straight voice.
"The courtiers thank the princess," she got up to salute, relying on the fact that she had already taken the Weixin Pill in advance, and then took the wine cup handed by the palace maid with confidence.
"The Duchess of the First Class is not in good health," interrupted her, the Third Highness King Cao on the opposite side, "I don't know if the doctor can drink alcohol?" ”
He reminded him lightly, but a pair of phoenix eyes stared at Kuang Yu.
"Exactly." Kuang Yu also smiled, took the wine cup in Jiang Linglong's hand and drank it all, "Doctor Neizi advised him to avoid alcohol, inherit the princess's good intentions, or let the subordinates replace him——"
Before he could say the words, his expression immediately tightened, and he fell heavily to the ground.
"Kuang Yu!"
Jiang Linglong didn't expect Kuang Yu to drink her wine before she could react to stop it, everything had already happened.
There are a lot of poisons in the world, why do hibiscus love instantaneous grass? Because it is colorless and odorless, and silver needles cannot detect poison.
She hurriedly knelt beside Kuang Yu to probe his breath and feel his pulse, but the exclamations and noises around her could not reach her ears.
She heard that King Cao had mentioned the instant grass, so she went back to find the medical book and put some effort into it. If there is a poison that cannot be detected, will it be poisonous, not poisonous?
Her mind was racing, and her body was already moving. She knelt closer to Kwong Yu, her hands clasped together, her arms straight, and pressed quickly and hard towards Kwong Yu's chest.
If not a toxin, but a drug that stimulates the movement of the heart muscle? What if the instantaneous grass caused the ionic disorder and caused cardiac arrest? Or is it indeed a toxin, but the half-life is very short, the toxicity has passed, and the person dies of suffocation without timely rescue?
She counted thirty times in her heart, and as soon as she arrived, she quickly pinched Kwong Yu's nose and blew into his mouth. And so on and so on, until the surrounding noise faded away, and everyone came forward to watch.
"Don't come here!" She pressed Kuang Yu's chest again, her forehead was already sweaty, her arms and back were sore, and when she saw someone approaching, she immediately shouted, "Stand apart and let the air in!" ”
"Ahem!"
He finally regained his breath and slowly opened his eyes.
In front of him was Jiang Linglong's wet eyes.
"Don't speak," she sternly ordered, "just lie down and breathe slowly." ”
"The First Duchess is really a god!" The king of Liang in the palace saw everything, and he was as incredible as everyone else, "What kind of exercise is this to save people?" This king has never heard of it, and has never seen it. ”
Jiang Linglong was excited. Shouted in my heart that it was bad.
She turned around timidly and replied respectfully to King Liang, "If you go back to the king, this is a set of methods for the courtier's hometown to save emergencies, called hippie baby." ”
